    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there!

    Generally speaking, it takes up to 72 hours for nameserver/DNS changes to take effect. So, you would not see the desired site after updating the domain’s nameservers or DNS records over at GoDaddy.

    I just checked the domain, and it’s loading your WordPress.com site for me. If you need to access any old site you hosted with GoDaddy, please contact their support team, as they may have temporary URLs to access the site on their servers.

    Feel free to let us know if you have more questions.
